  1. The Great Turk returns - Alternate resurging Ottomans (1747-1947)

    So out of 52k-strong Austrian army in Slavonia, 18k became casualties. That left 34k men in sorry state, few cannons and fewer horses. It seems that the Austrians were routed and their army disintegrated. The same happened at Wallachia with the lost of all cannons. They seemed to be so ineptly...
  2. The Great Turk returns - Alternate resurging Ottomans (1747-1947)

    I don't get this. After the battle the Austrians lost 11k men and ended up without artillery. Why did Koca Yusuf left for Moldova immediately without destroying the rest of the Austrian army? I mean Austria still had 75k men on the field.
  3. Piri goes West

    I am eagerly waiting for an update :) Usually all the POD about Muslim empires are centered around the Ottomans. This one is different AND it starts with the fall of Granada. So will it rise again? Update please! :)
  4. Es Geloybte Aretz - a Germanwank

    Hartz IV anfänger ? lol :D:D
  5. Es Geloybte Aretz - a Germanwank

    Things are getting interesting. I really can't see OE "selling" Libya, that would be a tremendous blow to the Sultan's image. He can't be seen selling muslims to the infidels :p On the other hand, what is the military capability of OE ITTL? I mean, is it stronger than the OTL? If OE is caught...
  6. With The Crescent Above Us

    So I was just wondering, about the size of non-muslim population of OE at this time. If I'm not mistaken, it was said that 75% of the population is muslim (of varying sects and schools). So that leaves 25% non-Muslim. Of these 25% non-muslim, I think only about 15%-20% lives in the Balkan...
  7. With The Crescent Above Us

    Things are getting interesting for the Ottomans. Now that the Russians had gotten their prestige back, and ally themselves with France, will they try to go south once more. The Ottomans are more powerful and industrialzed in 1907 then in 1877 but so are the Russians. If, however, the Russians...
  8. Louis XVI escapes France, are Belloc's speculations plausible?

    I would venture to say that revolutionary france would probably be defeated. Conservative elements in the French army and society would probably not going to fight if the other side flew the tricolour and had the king with them.
  9. Reviving the Idea of an Ottoman Victory in 1877-78

    While I don't know much about the value of money in this time, I remember that France was made to pay 5 billion francs to Prussia in the 1870 war. At the time it was considered an astronomical sum, yet France managed to pay it in just 5 years, leading to considerable consternation in Prussia...
  10. A chance for an Ottoman balkan

    The Ottomans would have been more successful in holding on to their Balkan possessions IF they had defeated Russian in 1877. If they were successful in that war, I believe that Europe would see the Ottomans in a new light. No longer as the sickman of Europe. After all, how many countries went...
  11. Ottoman Universal Empire - An Ottoman TL

    I guess now OE will be moving against Russia huh? But probably it's better if OE destroyed Austria first, or have a peace with her, so OE will not be fighting in two fronts. Btw, can OE lainch a land attach against Venice?
  12. Ottoman Universal Empire - An Ottoman TL

    Is it plausible to retake the Morea in just 4 months?
  13. Ottoman Universal Empire - An Ottoman TL

    Splendid! :) Don't worry about your english. As long as it can still be understood, it's enough :) Double encirclement huh? But how did the Ottomans managed to besiege the besiegers? Why didn't the Holy League Army attack first?
  14. Ottoman Universal Empire - An Ottoman TL

    Sounds good! I like the comparisons between OTL and AH. Please continue! :)
  15. Selimian Success : The face of Ottoman Empire and the world ahead ?

    The Indians in India, Indonesians and other African people under European Empires were NEVER given legal and political equality. Why should the Ottomans? If they can do a Meiji, whoever going to notice that the Koreans were second class citizen under Japan? Might makes right! :cool:
  16. Ming of the West, Koxinga Goes East

    Can you give us the estimated population of the Golden Gate state? Maps too if possible?
  17. WI Rhenish Moriscos

    I'm pretty sure the Moriscos will cross over to more tolerant places at the earliest possible opportunity. In fact, I'm betting that given the choice of the Dutch or the Spanish, they'd probably cross-over en-masse to the Dutch Republic. OTL the Moriscos fought fiercely on the side of the...
  18. Ming of the West, Koxinga Goes East

    This is AWESOME! :eek: I wanna see the Mings beat the sh*t up of the conquistadors! :cool: More please!
  19. The Rebirth of the Ottoman Empire

    I found this interesting piece of information in the memoir of Count Witte: page 38. "The war with Turkey had weakened the country and hindered its development... This war retarded our financial development for twenty years (!) as it frustrated the labours of the Minister of Finances, Reitern...
  20. The Rebirth of the Ottoman Empire

    Speaking of Russo-Turkish war Abdul, what about your TL? :) I really am eager to read it ;)
